Chapter 222

In the luxurious suite, Katniss hummed a tune happily as she unwrapped the gifts sent by the two elderly people.

There were food, drinks, and supplements.

Looking at these things, Katniss's face relaxed. The two elders really treated her like a child.

"Katniss." A familiar voice came from the doorway.

She turned her head and saw Juniper standing at the door with bags of things, smiling brightly.

Katniss's face lit up with surprise. She quickly put down what she was holding and walked towards her. "Your face has deflated, no marks left."

Juniper nodded, then put down her things and hugged Katniss. "That dog Simon, my brothers heard he hit me and said they would find someone to teach him a lesson in the detention center! Don't feel sorry for him!"

"I won't." Katniss smiled sweetly, pulling her into the room. "I was just saying, so many people came to see me, I didn't know how you were doing."

Juniper sighed, looking a bit embarrassed. "I've been having nightmares lately and haven't slept well. I didn't want you to worry, so I delayed a few days before coming to see you."

She felt a bit ashamed.

Katniss was the one who got hurt, yet she was the one having constant nightmares.

Katniss hugged her and comforted her, "We've been through this, things will get better from now on."

Juniper nodded, "Yeah, let's not talk about that. But you..."

She looked around the room. "If I hadn't come through the hospital's main entrance, I would have thought I was at your home. The setup here is too high-end. Is this a hospital stay or a retreat?"

Except for some basic equipment, the rest of the room felt very warm and comfortable.

Juniper pressed the mattress of Katniss's hospital bed and then lay down on it. "Wow, this is so comfortable."

She almost wanted to get sick herself.
